Hong Kong stocks open lower

HONG KONG, Oct 3, 2019 (BSS/AFP) – Hong Kong stocks sank in the first few
minutes of business Thursday following hefty losses in New York and Europe
fuelled by growing fears about the global economy.

The Hang Seng Index dived 0.81 percent, or 211.25 points, to 25,831.44.

Mainland Chinese markets were closed for a holiday.
